Lihtz debuted on the hit series show “EMPIRE” Fox on October 7th. Lihtz landed this role through an actual audition where he and a few other candidates tried out for the role in front of a panelist of Fox directors. Lihtz drove 13 hours to Chicago from Philadelphia for this audition and it was well worth it. Lihtz was new to the acting world but on this day put his best foot forward and won over the directors. He had the look, voice and personality they seemed to be looking for and it worked in his favor. Lihtz character on the show is actually attached to new cast member and “Rising star” Bre-Z. Bre-Z, who plays, Freda Gatz on the show is a young talented female rapper who had a rough upbringing and is seeming to gain interest from Lucious Lyon, (Terrence Howard). The role and association that Lihtz has with “Freda Gatz” is her closest friend from her entourage. The two are from the same neighborhood and have a “brother-sister” type relationship. Freda trust Lihtz with her life and knows if anyone is going to be by her side it’s him. Lihtz is overprotective of Freda and doesn’t really trust his close friend having anything to do with Lucious and his antics.
